Boardroom7 Apr 2036

Greuther Fürth spell it out for Interim Coach

The board’s statement ran to three sentences and one of them mentioned results. Interim Coach has managed long enough to translate: win soon, or the next statement is shorter.

Market7 Apr 2036

Nikola Petković is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Greuther Fürth is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Match5 Apr 2036

No end in sight to Greuther Fürth's wait for a win

4 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Greuther Fürth has to find a result from somewhere.

Squad7 Apr 2036

Tempers go at Greuther Fürth

Maxi Oyedele was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad7 Apr 2036

Ondřej Kukučka falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad7 Apr 2036

Appearance number 200 for Lewin Blum

200 games in this shirt, through managers and relegations and everything else. Service like it is disappearing from the game and the crowd knows what it is watching.

Match5 Apr 2036

Late, late show earns Greuther Fürth a point

Minute 88, against TSG Hoffenheim, and a goal that felt like a win to everybody who had stayed. It was a draw. Nobody leaving the ground will describe it as one.

The dugout7 Apr 2036

Nikola Petković gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Market7 Apr 2036

Talks stall between Greuther Fürth and Ondřej Kukučka

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

From our football correspondent Crisis

Market11 Jun 2035

Darmstadt 98 come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Greuther Fürth did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Market11 Jun 2035

Tycho de Wit is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Greuther Fürth is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Market11 Jun 2035

Fin Roberts hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Greuther Fürth can pretend not to have heard.

Transfer targets11 Jun 2035

Greuther Fürth make their move for Abdoulie Ceesay

$570.0K on the table at Fortuna Düsseldorf. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.

Squad11 Jun 2035

Words exchanged at Greuther Fürth

Jakub Surovčík and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad11 Jun 2035

A row about effort at Greuther Fürth

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Hugo Gomes was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Market11 Jun 2035

Borussia Mönchengladbach watching Enis Kamga

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Greuther Fürth have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Squad11 Jun 2035

Lewin Blum pulls a muscle — 15 days out

The injury that keeps coming back, keeps being rushed back from, and quietly costs more careers than the dramatic ones. 15 days is the estimate; the honest figure depends on whether anybody is patient.

The dugout11 Jun 2035

A promise honoured at Greuther Fürth

Something was said to Hugo Gomes and then it happened. In this industry that passes for remarkable, and the dressing room noticed faster than any supporter could.
